Use this parent input survey to get to know your students from their parents' or guardians' perspectives. Use the information from these questions to help create IEP goals and incorporate them into IEP meetings. The graphics tie in with my "Meet the Teacher" letter, also available on TeachShare. This letter prints in black and white to save ink. Pass these out at Meet the Teacher Day or Open House. Or send them home before the IEP meeting. Questions included tie into questions from the Alabama State Department of Education but can be used by teachers in any location.

This is included in my Survey Bundle available here.

Teachers can utilize these resources to teach students how to self-regulate their emotions and request a break if necessary. Directions and tips are included on the second page of the PDF, but I encourage you to check out my blog post here highlighting how I use these in my classroom.

This bulletin board decoration will help students remember that they are in control of themselves: they control their actions, their words, their effort... And in doing so, they can make smart choices to reach their full potential. Product includes

-six paper airplanes

-globe template with instructions to print as a 16x20 poster

-Letters and question mark to spell "What can you control?"

-Sample layout (with a different globe)

Students can complete this behavior tracker to show how well they were able to:

Follow directions

Participate

Have a positive attitude

Stay on task

Complete work

I added room for the teacher to write in how many (if any) prompts are acceptable to follow directions and stay on task. I also left room for a percentage of work that should be completed. I know often my special education students struggle to complete assignments due to lack of focus, etc. So I might put that one student needs to complete 70% of his assignment and then gradually increase it. There is space for that to be written in in the chart.

Students can choose a big smiley face, a small smiling face, and a frowning face to show how well they were able to maintain the directives. At the bottom there is room for teacher signature and comments. At the top, the student has space to write what assignment he or she is assessing.

Two sheets print per page to save paper.

Keep this quick reference guide for classroom behavior management strategies and interventions handy for when difficult behaviors arise in the classroom.

Print the Classroom Behavior Management Strategies and Interventions Quick Reference Guide on cardstock (laminate if preferred) and punch a hole in the top left corner. Use a binder ring to secure the pages together.

Use page 1 of quick reference guide as a way to determine an idea of the function of your student’s behavior. The box with the greatest number of checks should be considered as a possible function of the behavior. NOTE: THIS QUICK REFERENCE DOES NOT AND SHOULD NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF A FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT FOR SIGNIFICANT BEHAVIORS.

After determining a possible function, flip to the page of the book for that function to see a list of behavioral strategies to alleviate the negative behavior. Behavioral interventions are also suggested by function. NOTE: THESE STRATEGIES AND IDEAS FOR INTERVENTION DO NOT AND SHOULD NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF A BEHAVIOR INTERVENTION PLAN.

Use these certificates to celebrate when an IEP goal has been met! Students will be excited to receive an award for their hard work, and parents, guardians, and gen ed teachers will know the goal has been met. Includes a place to write which goal has been mastered. Prints as a 5x7, so two print per page. Use colorful cardstock to make it pop!

Looking for a way to learn the function of a student's behavior? I've got you covered with this Behavior Data Collection Sheet. This can be used as part of an official functional behavior analysis or as a way to learn how your students communicate their needs.

What's Included?

• A one-page guide to collecting ABC data (antecedent, behavior, consequence) to determine a hypothesis as to the function of a student's behavior.
• ABC Data collection page (printable)

Why do you need this?

There is a student in your classroom who struggles to express their wants or needs in an appropriate way. You want to alleviate the problematic behavior by discovering the behavior's function so you can find an alternate replacement behavior that serves the same function in a way that is more appropriate for the classroom.

How can I help?

Reach out to me on Instagram at www.instagram.com/rebekahpoeteaching or email me at lessonsandlattes2018@gmail.com. I'd love to answer any questions you may have.

Gaining input from the IEP team is an important part of the IEP-writing process. These Google forms ask simple questions of the family, student, and teacher that you can use to develop a student's IEP. Simply email the link to the desired recipient and have them complete it digitally. No waiting on papers to go home and come back; no mailing forms home. Simple and efficient. Includes three separate forms for teachers, students, and families.

Use this template to help you write IEP goals that are objective and measurable. Print for easy reference.

Use this simple survey to discover what your students preferred reinforcements are for encouraging positive behavior, to use as rewards, etc.

Use this as a quick way to review frequently used special education terms and acronyms. For a more in-depth look at each term, download my e-book Special Education Terms Made Simple available here.

Perfect for progress monitoring for RTI, small group instruction, IEP goals, and other classroom goals.

Use these pages to organize your data collection. The goal can be written on the lines provided. Then use the table to collect your data. Use these pages as dividers to separate work samples by subject and goal.

Pages include:

reading goal

math goal

functional goal

behavior goal

social skills goal

speech goal

language goal

writing goal

Print on colorful cardstock and add tabs to easily navigate through your binder.

The cards print four to a sheet on 8.5x11 paper. They print in black and white to save ink, and they look great when printed on colored cardstock. Use a hole-punch to make a hole to attach the key chain to the card.

If you are looking for a way to make sure your students' families have all of the important information they need- from ways to contact you to the school to important dates. There's even a page where you can add a picture of your school/district calendar!

Contains editable pages for school contact, teacher contact, dates to know, and school calendar. The "Dates to Know' comes pre-designed for a special education teacher, but there is a blank "Dates to Know" page if you do not need IEP information.

Prints in black and white so you can use colorful paper to save ink (if you desire).

Check out the video preview to see it in action.

This packet contains:

Data collection charts:

• Reading
• Math
• Language
• Functional
• Behavior
• Speech
• Social Skills

Cover sheet for pre-assessments

Parent and teacher input survey for IEP Development.

"Goal Master" certificate to hand out when students master a goal (print on colored card stock for more fun).

Post-it/sticky note template for accommodation checklists to easily track what accommodations are made on which assessments.

IEP at-a-glance form

Use this sheet to be able to quickly view a student's IEP information, such as accommodations, services, minutes, interests, and of course goals. Think of this as your IEP cheat sheet. Pass it out to the students' homeroom teachers so they can have all of the information in an easy-to-read format. The headings are centered in the boxes so when you enter the student's information, the text remains centered for a uniform look

Use these passports to learn a little more about your students.

As a special education teacher, I use these to communicate with the general education teachers about what accommodations were given on which assessments. The post-it template allows me to print directly on to a post-it note to make it even more quick and convenient. Print a template, cover the squares with post-its, and place the paper back into the printer. The direction of the paper will vary based on the model of the printer, but for me, I put them in upside down and facing backwards.
